Competition in the field of logistics and individual transport services requires the constant analysis of logistics chains and their individual links. Given analysis enables implementation of new approaches to logistics companies and networks trade marketing in the offtake of certain types of goods. Industrial and commercial enterprises have to expand their trade and economic relations with other regions with the aim to provide the necessary sales volumes in the domestic market of regions and to go beyond it. Integration of the country's economy and the free trade policy orientation greatly simplify the task of establishing the free trade and economic relations between producers and consumers. However, there is a question of how quickly and efficiently; with minimal logistics costs, the goods at the right region of the customer should be delivered. The experiment on a one-storey closed warehouse No 3 of Brovary "UVK Ukraine", where a process of the cross- docking warehousing, with subsorting from a warehouse, has been conducted. The warehouse mainly works on trading networks. The loading of the warehouse has been performed with the input flow intensity within (12.3 ... 23.56 (t/h)). During the experiment, the number gain of loading and unloading machines (Electrostacks Reath Track OMG NEOS LAT 3.0) a pcs in the process of unloading, loading and moving consignments, has been examined. In addition, the increasing number of workers employed in non-mechanized forms of work, such as receiving and stacking cargo in the reception area (moving the relevant consignments to designated areas of the reception area and its arrangement), which in total is an increase of 4 employees in the technological process of the warehouse operation, has been investigated during the experiment. The growing of labor and mechanized resources makes it possible to better organize the work of the warehouse, reduce total costs and increase cargo output flow. Conducting the process of warehouse work optimization on the formed technology and corresponding labor and mechanized resources caused an increase of its efficiency. It has been found that the optimal values of intensity of the incoming cargo flow will be 17.93 (t/h); the number of employees engaged in non-mechanized labor - 12 workers, and loading and unloading machines - 3 (pcs). Under such conditions, the warehouse functioning according to the desirability level will reach value 0.792. In this case, the cost value of warehouse work is 181.07 US$/h and cargo output flow intensity is 10.23 (t/h). Results of experimental studies have shown that implementation of the proposed method of increasing the efficiency of warehouse work, based on the company "UVK Ukraine" may, on average, achieve a total cost reduction of 17.2% and an increase in output flow by 34.6% and the input flow by 10.3%.

1 Introduction countries, the logistics sector in its broadest sense is ranked as the third among the economic sectors. Underestimating The current state of the logistics market development the role of logistics as a factor of influence on the efficiency of any country, including Ukraine, depends on the level of and competitiveness of the economy, worsens Ukraine’s its economy. The volume of services provided in the field position in international rankings. Thus, Ukraine in 2019 of logistics directly depends on the activity level of their in the World Bank’s Logistics Performance Index (LPI) is customers, the dynamics of production, domestic and ranked 67 in the world, [1]. One should consider that the foreign trade. For example, in the European Union (EU) logistic component’s share in the gross domestic product

(GDP) is 11 - 16% in developed countries (in the EU and logistical and organizational problems associated with the United States - 13-17%, in China - 25%, in Japan - 7%). design and management of individual warehouses with As for Ukraine, most experts relate the economy of the different systems of their warehouse functions it is difficult country to the level of the “third world” countries, in which to describe the wide range of issues and various options for logistics costs can reach 41% of the GDP. This figure in solving them [10]. Ukraine ranges from 31 to 34%. At the same time, 69% of The warehouse logistics is a functionally important logistics costs accounted for transport (6.8 bln US$), 24% - stage in warehouse operations and it has a direct impact for warehousing (2.3 bln US$) and about 6% - for logistics on cost and performance in the supply chain [11-13]. flow management (0.6 bln US$) [1-2]. Therefore, one of the Due to inefficient operation of the warehouse complex, main areas of the modern transport policy is transition to freight and logistics companies may experience significant the transport logistics in the transport and logistics system inconvenience associated with the expectation between (TLS). TLS allows to provide comprehensive services arrival and shipment [14]. This, in turn, leads to unjustified to consumers of transport services, to create conditions costs for the company in the form of a delay fee (fine for for the combined transport development, to reduce the delayed transportation and additional costs for keeping environmental burden on the environment [3]. The TLS the truck driver in overtime) and delayed delivery of structure should consist of a set of interconnected elements subsequent orders [15]. In addition, long idling trucks in interaction at the regional and local levels. Regional queues is not environmentally sustainable as it increases the distribution centers, terminal complexes, transport and concentration of carbon dioxide [16-18], so it is advisable logistics centers (TLCs) are the main system elements of to organize transport and storage complexes with a transport infrastructure objects [4]. standardized loading and a warehouse work efficiency. The The relevance of organization and increase of efficiency main aim of transport and logistics centers is to minimize of the transport and logistics centers is significantly the cost of logistics centers operating and to reduce the growing. This is evidenced by existence and creation of cost of goods transportation [1, 19]. Implementation of the new large, modern companies that specialize in this type short-term strategies for realization of the cargo service of cargo delivery organization. They compete with each functions in the transport and logistics complex will reduce other, offering customers better, more economical, faster logistics costs and increase the capacity of the warehouse and better ways of processing orders, both domestically [20]. The modeling approach and proposed warehouse and internationally. This necessitates the development of scheduling rules are pre-developed and can be adopted by efficient warehouse technologies and the organization of any enterprise. warehouse operations and logistics management. Within the framework of forming an efficient TLS system, 3PL - TLC operators and cargo shippers have been considered and the quality of logistics services has 2 Literature review been evaluated. Thus, the current state of the market can be determined: 41% of logistics is in a state of stagnation; Taking into consideration current trends in development 30% - at the stage of formation and development; 18% - at of the logistics services, it can be stated that the TLC have the stage of formation; 1.8% - at the redistribution stage become the basic elements of the cargo management and [21]. Consequently, customers and logistics providers seek cargo flows [5]. In general, such centers play a coordinating to optimize costs, implement new technologies, improve and distributive role in cargo transportation. Introduction the quality of logistics services and establish effective of the new modern technologies necessitates creation communication between customers and logistics providers of a network of TLC infrastructural objects that perform to increase the loyalty level of the end consumers [22]. functions of interaction between types of transport and International companies in Ukraine suggest that imperfect organization of material distribution in the economic legislation - 74%; corruption factor - 51%; customs work - region [6]. They are the basic foundation of material flow 59%; poor quality of infrastructure - 62%; lack of professional management that provide interconnection with senders, staff - 24%; market monopolization - 14% are the main consumers, carriers, etc. obstacles in development of the TLS market. Ukrainian Major trends, such as timeliness, containerization companies also gave to the factors of imperfect legislation and e-commerce, lead to a steady increase in the volume and corruption factors the first place - 58 and 57%, then of goods that have to be transported in accordance with imperfect infrastructure - 49%, difficulties in customs regulated delivery schedules [7]. Supply chains in this case work - 45%, problems with staff experience - 26%, and are formed in such a way as to use fully adaptive storage monopolization - 17%. Among the factors that can greatly systems as one of the main components of the transportation influence the development of the TLS, experts point out to process [8].

The warehouse characteristics of warehouse systems, their strengths and mainly works on trading networks. This warehouse is part weaknesses have been identified. However, that aspect of the TLS where goods can be transported as by road makes it possible to implement individual storage units for transport and by rail through the container platform of the various technological processes. Therefore, it is desirable TLS. The railway and connections are brought to identify the critical factors in the local logistics chain to the container platform. From the container platform in the warehouse and to propose solutions to improve its the required containers have been sent to the warehouse efficiency [34]. Use of the warehouse database processing reception area and, if it is necessary the completed methods is well suited to set the basic characteristics of containers from the warehouse departure area have been individual warehouse units. At the same time, the main moved, to the TLC container platform and further transport logistic processes, involving both labor and machinery is already formed. should not be damaged [35-36]. It should be noted that The technological process of the studied warehouse direct modeling of cargo flows together with quantitative complex TLC functioning has the following sequence of analysis made it possible to identify delays in the logistics operations: chain and to determine indicators that will allow increasing 1) Arrival of cargo to the warehouse: preparation of the efficiency of the resource usage.

Silvia Dutkova - Karol Achimsky - Pawel Drozdziel SIMULATION OF A QUEUING SYSTEM OF A POST OFFICE IN ANYLOGIC SOFTWARE

This paper displays the design and application of a model that simulates the queuing system of a fictional post office. Starting point for solving more complicated optimization tasks is to create a system model that consists of elements of reality and the relationships between these elements. The key part of the paper includes the model of a queuing system of a post office created in Anylogic simulation software. The model of the post office displays post office with 5 postal counters, a certain input flow and a certain service time with an exponential probability distribution. The model also includes statistics and cost calculation. Keywords: post office, simulation, Anylogic, costs, conceptual model

1 Introduction the requirements is that a customer should not wait more than 12 minutes at the queue in the post office. Waiting and Digital technologies and to them related processes of service times at post offices are directly related to customer automation and digitalization, are the driving force of the satisfaction [1, 12]. present. They affect the labour market, productivity and Customer satisfaction, which co-creates a good image efficiency growth and ultimately are one of the key elements of the postal company and can significantly influence of transformation of functioning of society, businesses and customer behaviour and preferences, is one of the factors economies. Digitalization and automation also affect the of the of the postal services quality [22].

Figure 1 General queuing system systems are systems (physical, social) serving to meet the 3 Data and methods needs of individuals, customers and requirements entering the system. The queuing service system is everything that The fundamental methods that are used in this paper is between the arrival of a request in the system and its are modelling and simulation method. In addition to the departure from the system. A queuing system of a post simulation model in the Anylogic program, the paper office can be considered as a stochastic system with displays a conceptual model of the queuing system of a post theoretically unlimited queue, a certain average service office. The conceptual model of the system was created time, a customer arrival and a certain number of service before the simulation model itself. lines [1, 7-9]. The model in Anylogic software displays five postal The queuing theory deals with problems, which involve counters servicing customers. Three counters are universal queuing (or waiting) in the line. Typical examples might be: and provide to customers all the postal services from the • banks/supermarkets -waiting for service, scope of universal service. There is also a financial counter • computers - waiting for a response, and a service counter at the post office. For the public the • public transport - waiting for a train or a bus. opening hours (every work day) are from 7:00 to 19:00. Modelling of queuing systems requires introduction The queuing system of a fictional post office is of notions originated by Kendall, which are also used to characterized by the two main random variables, namely describe a queuing system [24-25]: the average time of service and the average customer input at the post office. For this paper the average customer input A/ B / m / K / n/ D, (1) is given:

where: A - distribution function of the inter arrival λ = 2.20 minutes. (2) times, B - distribution function of the service times, where m The given average service time is: is a number of servers, K - capacity of the system, the maximum number of µ = 4.20 minutes. (3) customers in the system including the one being serviced, where n is the population size, which determines the Input data of the model input are fictional. The number of sources of customers, simulation of a particular system requires a detailed system D - service discipline. analysis that includes both an analysis of customer input Exponentially distributed random variables are flow and service time. expressed by M, meaning Markovain or memoryless [22-23]. According to the Kendall’s classification of queuing Generally, all the queuing systems can be divided systems, the queuing system of a post office is classified as into individual sub-systems consisting of entities, which a system with an infinite queue, five independent parallel are queuing for some activity (see Figure 1) [24-25]. lines, exponential distribution of the arrivals of customers, service times and a waiting discipline FIFO.

2.2 System modelling 3.1 Conceptual model of the post office queuing Simulation methods are methods that are often used system in the queuing theory. Solving complicated optimization tasks using simulation often leads to a creation of model The model starts with an event - the arrival of the that contains elements of a real system and relationships customer. The customer checks whether the counters are between them. The dynamic elements of the system are occupied. If they are not occupied, the customer enters handled by the time-slicing method. This method can counter. If they are currently occupied, he/she chooses model the progress of time when an event occurs. An event a minimum queue. It is clear that the customer chooses represents a change in the state of the system at a time. a counter according to the service he/she requires. If the There are two event types in simpler event-based simulation customer is waiting in the queue for more than 6.5 minutes, models arrival of customer and an end of service [10-13]. he/she leaves the post office without being served.

Kamil Krasuski - Stepan Savchuk ACCURACY ASSESSMENT OF AIRCRAFT POSITIONING USING THE DUAL-FREQUENCY GPS CODE OBSERVATIONS IN AVIATION

This study publishes results of tests with regard to determination of the aircraft positioning accuracy by means of the GPS navigation in aviation. The research exploits the mathematical model of the linear combination "Ionosphere- Free" in order to designate the coordinates of an aircraft. The research uses the actual GPS code observations, recorded by a satellite receiver mounted in the Cessna 172, at the time of the experiment for the EPDE military aerodrome in Dęblin. The computations of the position of the Cessna 172 aircraft for the linear combination "Ionosphere-Free" were made in the APS Toolbox v.1.0.0. programme. Within evaluation of accuracy of the GPS positioning in aviation, the determined coordinates of the aircraft Cessna 172 from the APS programme were compared to an accurate reference position from the solution derived by the PPP measurement technique. In the research, the authors obtained an average positioning accuracy of approximately 5 m in the geocentric XYZ coordinates and approximately 4 m in the ellipsoidal BLh coordinates. In addition, the 3D-error parameter is lower than 7 m for the XYZ geocentric coordinates. Keywords: GPS, Ionosphere-Free linear combination, accuracy, PPP method, aviation

Nowadays, in all the cities, there is an acute problem of a lack of parking spaces. The number of vehicles are becoming more and more larger, not only in megacities, but in small cities of the country, as well and there are no more parking places - the pace of solving the problem is several times slower than the rate of the transport growth among the citizens. The article is dedicated to the determination of the optimum sizes parking place for designing vehicles on a parking space, which is an element of the roads. The optimum amount parking places are determined on examples of the passenger cars and trucks. The results of research on dimensioning of parking spaces and recommendations to use the results for design of objects of transportation infrastructure are presented. According to the research, authors included the term "design vehicle" and gave its definition. The authors developed a template for 7 types of design vehicles and their sizes and also recommended sizes for longitudinal parking for each of their design vehicles. The optimum parking plot angles are determined, as well. Keywords: trajectory, parking space, design vehicle, software Auto TURN, turning radius of vehicles

The dimensions in these space. Unfortunately, design of parking does not take documents were copied from the Handbook for Automobile into account the composition of the traffic flow that takes Transportation and Traffic Management [4] published in shape on a specific road, transport infrastructure object the USSR in 1981, which, in turn, was a translation of the (requirements are obvious here, in the USA where the size American Road Traffic Management Handbook of 1965 of cars is larger than in Europe, the size of parking space and the recommendations given in the third edition of the is larger), duration of parking is not taken into account; Transportation and Traffic Engineering Handbook [5]. short-term parking near shops, banks, etc., requires more Requirements for parking geometry in regulatory space for manoeuvring upon arrival and departure from the documents contain ambiguous, sometimes contradictory parking space than during the long-term parking). The most information that may adversely affect the level of the road acute problem manifested itself when a ban was imposed safety. Thus, in the “Methodological recommendations on on the transit movement of vehicles weighing more than the design and equipment of highways to ensure traffic 12 tons during the daytime along the Moscow safety” [6], the turning radius of a passenger car is 8 m and (Resolution of the Mayor of Moscow, dated November for a truck is 9-12 m.

During the roads designing, it The parking space for vehicles includes parking space becomes necessary to introduce the concept of a “design for a vehicle and a manoeuvring area, designed for the vehicle”. This term is defined differently. “A design vehicle entrance to parking spaces, exit and setting cars.

Irwanda Wisnu Wardhana - Dhani Setyawan - Khairunnisah DETERMINANTS OF LABOR MARKET IN JAKARTA METROPOLITAN AREA: A SURVIVAL ANALYSIS OF COMMUTERS

This study aims to assess the determinants of the labor market in the Greater Jakarta Area (Jabodetabek) with a population of 27.9 million (2010 census) and growth rate of 3.6 percent per annum over the period 2000-2010. With a total area of 4,384 square kilometers (1,693 sq mi), the city has a very high population density of 14,464 people per square kilometer (37,460/ sq mi), while the metro area has a density of 4,383 people/sq km (11,353/sq mi). The paper employs the survival regression analysis by incorporating attributes of commuter, namely gender, age, distance, travel time, wages, stress, education level, double income households and home ownership. The area consists of Jakarta as the receiving labor market and eight municipalities and regencies as labor suppliers. The study utilizes a cross-section data from a commuter survey with more than 4,000 respondents participated using different modes of land transport. The results reveal that some determinants have influenced commuters' resiliency and their willingness to participate in the receiving labor market. This study found that gender, distance, wages and home ownership do not affect the respondent’s decision whether to stay or quit as commuters. On the other hand, the fittest model exhibits that age, education level, stress, travel time and double income households have significant effects on individual's decision to stay or quit as a commuter. It is found that gender, distance, wages and home ownership do not matter for respondent’s decision on whether to stay or to quit as commuters. The model exhibits that age, education level, stress, travel time and double-income household have significant effects on an individual's decision to stay or quit as a commuter. Education level has a positive effect; on the other hand, age, stress, double-income household and travel time have a negative effect. The policy implications for improving the labor supply provision and some contested policy options are suggested, such as the provision of affordable housing in Jakarta, the improvement of commuting enjoyment, the establishment of child care facilities in the office buildings and the creation of more sophisticated jobs within the Jakarta’s surrounding municipalities and regencies. Keywords: commuter, labor supply, survival analysis, transportation

Nearly one-third of the commuter labors fulfilled In Table 3 is shown that commuter probability of staying Jakarta’s labor market and contributed to Jakarta’s a commuter is more significant than the hazard of quitting economy. Commuter labors resilience can be drawn by as a commuter. Based on the education level, Jakarta has examining their commuting duration.

It describes how the to the local area. Therefore, the higher the education level, individual resilience on commuting in one day. Therefore, if the more commuters will stay as a commuter rather than commuting is done repeatedly more than one hour a day, it quit. In order to keep their labor working in their origin will deflate the individual’s utilization. Thus, according to area, commuter’s area of origin must develop economic [25], the individual will tend to find a home closer to their activities that will expand jobs opportunity for labor with workplace. higher education level qualification.

For the commuting a commuter could be affected by education level and duration, the longer the commuting takes time, the higher gender. While age does not describe someone’s willingness the chance of someone to quit as a commuter. However, this to quit as a commuter or have a shorter duration on is not the case where commuter does not feel any stress on commuting, it is still an aspect that needs to be considered commuting. The more commuter resistance to stress, the regarding the ability to perform commuting.

If Jakarta’s surrounding provision and some contested policy options are suggested area wants to retain their residents to work in their area, such as the provision of affordable housing in Jakarta, the jobs opening, especially for labor with a higher level of creation of jobs within the Jakarta’s surrounding cities and education, must be attractive enough to the employee improvement of the commuting enjoyment. candidates. It can be started by giving better incentives and Labors with a higher educational level are those who more job opportunities that match their qualifications and are willing to stay as a commuter in order to pursue their interests. most wanted and most suitable job for their qualification. If Jakarta wants to retain their numerous commuter Jakarta has offered much more opportunities compared to labors, it must improve the transportation system. Not its surrounding areas such as Depok, Bogor, Tangerang and only the inner-city transportation that must be developed Banten. However, as labor grow older, they are more likely but the intercity transportation, as well. Therefore, it will to stay in their area of origin and plan to quit as a commuter, make commuters more likely to head to Jakarta because especially if the commuting time is longer than one hour there will be no more significant constraint to head to and trigger stress on the labor. This is also the case of work, especially the time constraint. Tariff reduction on women commuter, especially if they already have a spouse public transportation can also play a role to retain and and a school-aged kid, where they are more likely to quit as attract more labor from the surrounding area. In addition, a commuter due to household decision making. the enjoyment during the traveling time must be taken Jakarta surroundings already has its advantage of into consideration.

Thus, the when changing their transportation modes would be very provision of affordable housing in Jakarta will help retaining much welcomed. Additionally, entertainment during the labor supply. However, the lower housing prices and rents commuting is also useful to reduce boredom such as access would be a trigger to labors to be commuters. Furthermore, to free internet.

Damian Wierzbicki - Kamil Krasuski METHODS OF PREDICTING THE HEADING, PITCH AND ROLL ANGLES FOR AN UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE

The article discusses handicaps in predicting values of rotation angles with regard to Heading, Pitch and Roll for an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle. Within the simulation of the rotation angle values, the linear, polynomial and logarithmic methods were used. The programme source code was written in the numerical editor Scilab 5.4.1. The source data for investigation were recorded by a measuring device Trimble UX-5. The article provides results of comparing the real values of Heading, Pitch and Roll rotation angles to findings obtained from the prediction methods. Based on the conducted research, it was found that the largest value of standard deviation parameter in prediction of the rotation angles is for the angle of Heading, as it equals approximately 5o, whereas the smallest ones are for the Roll and Pitch angles, equalling less than 1.4o. Keywords: UAV, prediction, heading, pitch, roll

1 Introduction flight stage of an aircraft, exploiting available numerical tools and mathematical algorithms. A fundamental navigation aspect in the Unmanned The primary objective of this article is a possibility for Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology is determination of presenting the methods of prediction of the HPR angles, coordinates and orientation angles in airspace. In the case as well as a verification of their results in comparison to of determining the UAV coordinates, the preferred method the actual data, registered by an UAV. For this purpose, of positioning is the GNSS satellite technology [1], using real readings of the HPR angles from the Trimble 5 code observations on the L1 frequency [2]. However, the platform were taken. In the simulation calculations, three UAV orientation during a flight mostly relies on readings methods of predicting the HPR values were used, i.e. the from the IMU device, being part of the INS sensor. The method of linear regression, the polynomial method and the IMU device has in-built accelerometers (to determine the logarithmic method. aircraft acceleration along the three axes of the reference system) and gyroscopes (to determine three angles of rotation). Ultimately, the INS system provides six degrees 2 Methods of research of freedom within the navigational designation of the user’s position with an integration based on GPS/INS data [3]. In the framework of simulation of predicting the The Heading, Pitch, Roll (HPR) rotation angles refer to the rotation angles, i.e. Heading, Pitch and Roll, three test internal aircraft system, representing the UAV turn, bank methods were exploited, i.e.: and rotation [4].

Rafal S. Jurecki ANALYSIS OF ROAD SAFETY IN POLAND AFTER ACCESSION TO THE EUROPEAN UNION

The article presents an assessment of the state of safety on Polish roads in the period 2004-2018 in terms of changes that occurred after Poland’s accession to the EU. The number of vehicles in the period in question was analyzed and the annual growth of the number of vehicles of the main types was assessed. Analysis of changes in the length of the most important road types was carried out. The number of accidents and fatalities was analyzed and the changes in this area were assessed. The statistical decrease in the number of accidents and fatalities, as well as a very strong correlation between them, were confirmed. It was indicated in which groups of accidents the fatality risk is the highest. The paper presents a summary of the types of roads on which traffic accidents and fatal traffic accidents occurred. Shares of these roads were determined, indicating that the most dangerous roads in Poland are the two-way, two-lane roads. Keywords: road safety, accident, accident statistics

1 Introduction road factors [13-14], etc. Problems related to road safety were analyzed in a number of publications [15-17]. The use of cars has become commonplace in everyday In 2004, Poland was included into the European Union. life. Unfortunately, the road traffic is a source of traffic Since then, significant changes have taken place in many events hazardous to the health and life of road users. Every aspects of life in Poland. The possibility of free movement year, there are tens of thousands of accidents in Poland, in Europe within the Schengen Area, liberalization of with several thousand fatalities. Tens of thousands of many regulations caused changes in the structure of people are injured in these accidents, which is of no less exploited vehicles caused by a large influx of used vehicles. importance. Traffic accidents have significant social and At the same time, along with numerous investments in economic consequences [1-2]. In 2004, the unit cost of infrastructure, significant changes have taken place in the a fatality in Poland, estimated according to the PANDORA broadly understood road surroundings. 2014 method, was approximately PLN 2.05 million and that The article analyzes selected factors that impact the of severely injured person was PLN 2.32 million. In Poland, safety on Polish roads. the costs of accidents in the year 2004 amounted to about PLN 30 billion [2]. Due to the significance of the traffic accidents problem, 2 Vehicles in Poland a number of publications [3-5] have undertaken analysis of the state of safety on roads of a multitude countries, The number of vehicles registered in Poland in the including Poland [6-8]. This is despite the fact that the analyzed period has significantly changed. In nearly 15 roads in the EU are considered to be among the safest in years, it has increased from approximately 16.7 million to the world. Among those involved in the matters of the road nearly 30 million. If we take the 2004 (as 100%) as a baseline safety, one question is still being raised: what solutions value, the recorded increase in this respect reached 77% should be implemented to reduce accident rates and their [18]. negative consequences? In order to consider these issues, At the same time, the number of passenger cars has an in-depth analysis of the causes and consequences of increased from nearly 12 million to over 22.5. In turn, this traffic accidents is necessary, taking into account various translates into an increase of nearly 90%. The number factors [9]. Factors that may determine the possibility of of trucks (44%) and motorcycles (71%) also increased. traffic accidents include: the state of road infrastructure in A summary of the numbers of motor vehicles and passenger a given country [10], technical factors [11], cultural factors, cars is presented in Figure 1.

Poland increased form 314 in 2004, and to 586 cars in by slightly more than 10%. However, the changes are 2018. In this respect, Poland is currently one of the leading particularly visible in the case of national roads [21], as well European countries. as expressways and motorways [22]. After the borders were opened and procedures such as The change in the length of the most important roads customs formalities were simplified, the annual increases in in Poland is presented in Figure 4 [22]. At the end of 2018, the number of cars were significant, as shown in Figure 2. the total length of expressways and motorways in Poland One of the main factors influencing the increase in amounted to 2092 km and 1638 km, respectively. In total, the total number of vehicles was the change in the number these roads in relation to all the public roads in Poland of passenger cars. In the record-breaking year of 2008, constitute only just over 0.8% of all roads. the growth of all registered vehicles reached 1.85 million In Europe, Spain has the most developed motorway vehicles, 1.5 million of which were passenger cars. If the network, having more than 17 thousand km of motorways relative changes in the number of vehicles (Figure 3) in on an area of 500 thousand km2 [6]. In Germany (total particular groups of vehicles are analyzed, it is clear that area of 357 thousand km2) there are 15.3 thousand km of the only decrease was recorded in 2005 (compared to 2004) such roads, while in France (551 thousand km2) -just over with regard to the number of trucks and motorcycles. 11.6 thousand km of such roads [18, 23]. The length of In 2008, the highest relative increase in the number such roads per total area of a country is an indicator that of passenger cars, motorcycles and trucks was recorded determines the degree of development of the road network -7-10% [18]. and the density of the best roads. In Poland, it is only 0.005 km/1 km2, while in Belgium it is 0.058 km/1 km2, Holland 0.074 km/1 km2, Spain 0.0344 km/1 km2. 3 Changes to roads in Poland Apart from expressways and motorways [22], Poland has nearly 20 thousand km of national roads [24]. All of There are over 420 thousand public roads in Poland [8, them include the most important road routes managed 20]. In recent years, especially after Poland’s accession to by the Polish General Directorate for National Roads and the EU, the road network has undergone certain changes. Motorways (GDDKiA). In Poland, these constitute nearly The length of public roads has increased relatively little, 5% of all available roads.

If 2004 is assumed as the baseline for the state of among the top European countries. In this respect Poland roads, in nearly fifteen years the length of motorways was surpassed by such countries as: Germany with 339 has increased by more than 206%, while the length of thousand accidents, Italy -243 thousand, Great Britain -213 expressways has increased by 712%. thousand or, the similar in terms of area and population, Spain -94 thousand. It should be noted, however, that the way in which accidents are counted and defined varies 4 Traffic accidents, their causes and consequences from country to country, making it very difficult to compare these data in full. During a meeting of EU transport The road traffic generates the danger of collisions ministers in Valetta, attention was also drawn to the fact and accidents. Unfortunately, these incidents are still an that EU Member States should report traffic accidents using integral part of the road traffic. Despite many actions taken a common definition of “accidents”, using comparable and both in Poland [25-27] and by EU authorities [28-30], the reliable data [28, 34]. still unattainable and still time-shifted goal is to halve the Since 1997, there has been a clear decrease in the number of deaths. Such an ambitious goal was set earlier number of accidents in Poland. When the analysis is for the year 2020 (in relation to 2010) [28, 30]. narrowed down to the period 2004-2018 (see Figure 6) it In Poland, in the analyzed years, considering the can be seen that the number of accidents since Poland’s significant density of traffic, the statistically assessed road accession to the EU has decreased by 38%. It is worth safety improved, although it was subject to significant noting, however, that at the same time in the analyzed fluctuations [7, 16, 31]. To make the state of safety in Poland period the number of vehicles increased by nearly 80%. easier to assess, Figure 5 shows the number of accidents in The value of the relative change in the number of the last 40 years. accidents is shown in Figure 7, the average value (marked From such a perspective, it is clear that the culmination with a red line) in the analyzed years amounted to -3.24%. point of the number of accidents on Polish roads (which This indicates an annual statistical decrease in the number occurred many years before Poland’s accession to the of accidents. The largest decrease, i.e. approx. 10% and EU) was in 1997. A record number of over 66 thousand over, was recorded in the years 2009-2010. However, the accidents was recorded in Poland in that year. In order downward trend was not recorded annually, as in 2007 the to indicate the importance of the problem, it is worth highest increase in the number of accidents was recorded, mentioning that according to EC (CARE) data [23, 32-33] reaching 6%. there were more than 1.36 million accidents in Europe total. In 2004, a total of 47,900 people died in EU countries. In In terms of the number of accidents, this placed Poland Poland, this value was 5,712. Calculated per million citizens,

In the period 2004-2018 [23, 33], one wonders whether there is any relationship the number of fatalities on Polish roads decreased by nearly between the number of road accidents and the number of 50% (Figure 8). fatalities. From the data presented in [34] it is clear that In 2018, 3,862 fatalities were recorded, which means the number of accidents in Poland is largely dependent on that statistically 76 people per 1 million citizens died on the number of people killed. If one compares the results the roads in Poland. Taking into account the fact that the provided in Figure 9, it can be seen that the coefficient EU average in 2018 in this respect was 49, Poland ranked of determination R2 for Poland is very high, reaching fifth in this unfavorable ranking. Poland was ahead of approximately 0.99. High values are also reported for such Romania (96), Bulgaria (88), Latvia (78) and Croatia (77) in countries as Hungary (R2= 0.982), Estonia (R2= 0.981), this respect. United Kingdom (28), Denmark (29), Ireland Lithuania (R2= 0.982) and the UK (R2= 0.96). The values and Netherlands (31) and Sweden (32) have been identified indicate that if the number of road accidents is reduced, the as the safest countries in this respect [33]. According to number of fatalities will decrease, too. However, reducing incomplete data, in 2018 there were around 25,300 fatalities the number of killed to zero in this way is not possible in and 135,000 injured on the EU roads [30]. practice.

Jan Steininger - Stefan Medvecky - Robert Kohar - Tomas Capak OPTIMIZATION PROCEDURE OF ROLLER ELEMENTS GEOMETRY WITH REGARD TO DURABILITY OF SPHERICAL ROLLER BEARINGS

The article deals with an optimization procedure of roller elements geometry with regard to durability of spherical roller bearings. The aim of the article is to examine the impact of change of the roller elements inner geometry on durability and reliability of spherical roller bearings; the contact strain along a spherical roller by means of the Finite Element Method at contact points of components of a spherical roller bearing by means of designed 3D parametric models. The most appropriate shape of roller elements inner geometry of a bearing from the standpoint of calculated durability was determined based on results of the contact analyses. Keywords: rolling element, contact strain, spherical roller bearing

1 Introduction Roller bearings durability depends on a revolution number, which the bearing can perform until fatigue of any Roller bearings are an inseparable part of most machines of their components takes place. A peeled material is a sign and devices in which there takes place a rotation movement of the component fatigue. Fatigue is a basic and natural way or a linear motion. There are different requirements on of bearing damage. It is demonstrated by the presence of roller bearings. Production machines need bearings, which small cracks under the bearing raceway surface. The depth are able to work in high revolution, in power engineering of these cracks is usually about 0.05-0.3 mm depending bearings have to carry heavy loads, etc. on the surface curve radii of rolling elements and the Development, or rather rolling bearing optimization, bearing ringsraceways. The crack depth allows the material is conditioned by an increase of technical parameters in changes, which are caused by the slide pulsating strain. machines and devices. This fact refers especially to an This process leads to a gradual crack formation under the increase of input parameters such as power and revolution, surface. It can take quite a long time until it is visible on the weight and volume reduction, noise level reduction, surface in a form of the peeled off material, the so-called etc. However, the most important parameters requiring pitting [2-3]. optimization are the bearing lifetime and reliability.

Libor Hadacek - Lenka Sivakova - Radovan Sousek - Mikael Zeegers ASSESSMENT OF SECURITY RISKS IN RAILWAY TRANSPORT USING THE FUZZY LOGICAL DEDUCTION METHOD

The aim of the paper is to inform about the possibilities of using a fuzzy logical deduction in security practice. The fuzzy logic deduction allows to record the management experience in IF - THEN rules and does not require a precise description of the parameters of the controlled function. This property is an important asset for risk assessment in an incompletely defined environment. The application of the method is demonstrated in the security risk assessment of the physical protection of the national railway with a focus on the corridor railway lines and with regard to the future construction of high-speed railway lines in the Czech Republic. At present, it is a generally accepted fact that securing basic transport functions is a prerequisite for successful crisis management. These functions can be specified as road and rail negotiability. Keywords: fuzzy logic deduction, security, safety, rail, crisis management

An Security management activities in an organization example of the difference between two-state logic and fuzzy involve a great amount of decision-making on strategy and logic is shown in Figure 1. tactics of risk management [1-3]. Security managers have The fuzzy logical deduction is based on the basic to make decisions despite uncertainties, inaccuracies, or rule of human logical thinking. Deduction, i.e. drawing incompleteness of input data [4-5]. They use quantitative conclusions, is implemented through formulas. The most tools to make decisions that require a certain level of input important rule used is the modus ponens rule. Formally, it data precision. Furthermore, they can also apply semi- is possible to write it as follows: quantitative analytical methods based on a point scale. In AA, & B the case of more independent variables, their point values B . (1) are usually obtained using binary operations. This results in the value of the output dependent variable being the same In this rule, there are A, B formulas. The rule modus for a different combination of values of the input variables. ponens says that if we know the fact labeled by formula A possible method of making decisions with uncertainty A and we know that the fact B is based on fact A, then we or incompleteness of input data is the application of can assume that the fact B is valid. In classical logic, true fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic isused in controlling processes of and false formulas are examined in models, while fuzzy industrial products. For example, their principles control logic examines formulas whose truth value in models the image processing processes or automatic washing is different [7]. The principle of fuzzy logic deduction machines programs. is illustrated by the general fuzzy controller shown in To control processes in an incompletely defined Figure 2. The general fuzzy controller consists of blocks of environment, it is appropriate to use a fuzzy logical fuzzification, knowledge base, inferential mechanism, and deduction. Fuzzy logical deduction (FLD) is a part of fuzzy defuzzification. logic in a broader sense. FLD was described by prof. V. In the fuzzification process, the input independent Novak in [6] in 1995 with the aim of creating an exact formal variable is assigned a language expression. It is a variable theory. whose values can be words or some natural language expressions [7]. An example of the names of selected language expressions is given in Table 1. 2 Model of risk assessment using the fuzzy logical The extensions of evaluation predictions are deduction method constructed identically in all contexts.

Figure 5 The model of fuzzy controllers system for determining of the risk of an asset loss

Determining the value of the risk by the FLD method Fuzzy controllers can be connected together. This is based on the same principles as the traditional method feature allows you to solve a complex task when only one of determining the risk value, as described in the technical set of rules is not sufficient. Assessing security risks is standard [9]. The risk values presented in Figure 4 are based a complex task, the result of which supports the decision- on Table 5. The method of determining the values changes making process of security management on the use of risk the established linear perception of the course of risk management strategies. Security risks are, by their nature, values. The created lines of risk are similar to those of the intentional, thoughtful and purposeful acts of a person output characteristics of the transistor. who implements a scenario of an attack [10]. Due to The proposed procedure eliminates the lack of the uniqueness of the location of the protected object, a traditional risk-setting method. For example, with a number of uncertainties and incompleteness of the input a probability value of 0.1 and the consequence value of 100, data can be considered. A model of the fuzzy controller the resulting value of risk is 10. If the probability is 1 and system for determining the value of the risk of an asset loss the magnitude of consequence is 10, then the risk value is is shown in Figure 5. again 10. When applying the FLD method to determine the The asset is related to the internal and external risk values, in the first case the risk value is 23.1 and in the context. Contexts include the number of casualties. Other second case, the result is 14.7, as can be seen in Table 5. contexts include damage to property and the environment.

The relationship between measures and scenarios is applied in an expert judgement on asset vulnerability. A measure of the asset‘s 3.2 Scenario vulnerability is the probability of its loss. The consequence of the loss of an asset is a measure of the asset‘s context.

Dusan Janostik - Viktor Nohal - Herbert Seelmann - Jaroslav Smutny THE CONTINUOUS MONITORING OF SELECTED RAILWAY STRUCTURES USING THE AUTONOMOUS DATA LOGGER

This contribution focuses on issue of the autonomous monitoring of selected dynamic parameters of the railway lines test sections under conditions in the Czech Republic. Description of the possibilities of such data collection, including the designed hardware and software, is a part of this contribution. At the same time, the contribution describes application of such a measuring system, comparing the selected dynamic parameters of the two types of switches, the first one was a switch with a standard fastening node, the other one with an elasticized fastening node. Recommendations and conclusions of railway infrastructure manufacturers and railway line managers are parts of this contribution, as well. Keywords: data logger, vibrations, monitoring, railway

This function is conditioned by suitable properties of gravel The railway line (or the tram line) represents a multi- grains. Their size must be optimal, the compaction must be layer system determined for the motion of railway vehicles sufficient (single grains must be mutually placed so that including the equipment necessary for ensuring the safety there may be the smallest possible space between them) and smoothness of the railway traffic. The traffic line is and they must be mutually wedged in by their sharp edges formed by the superstructure and the substructure. By [2]. the substructure is understood the railway earth bed Vibrations of the superstructure are affected by its and the structures that completely or partially substitute quality, by operation and structural conditions, climatic protective structures and equipment. Its task is to support phenomena and especially by the dynamic loading by the superstructure. The track bed forms the boundary the wheel pairs of the rail vehicles. Related to the rising between the substructure and the superstructure [1]. speed on the railway tracks, the dynamic effects acting The superstructure is formed by the railway track, on the rail structure increase, as well. These effects which carries and directs vehicles. The superstructure is negatively influence the rails and lead to the development of constructed either as a classic one with the gravel ballast failures and defects. Defects usually become evident in the or as a slab track. It should be mentioned that in the Czech disintegration of the geometric parameters of the rail, which Republic the ballast-free track represents the so-called non- consequently leads to the repeated increase of dynamic conventional structure of the superstructure. Its application effects, which has negative affect on the functionality of occurs especially in special cases like for instance is the the whole system. The result is a malfunction of the entire tram track, the underground or the track passing through system and thus also endangering the continuity and safety tunnels. The rail of the ballast-free track is mostly fixed to a of the rail traffic. It may be unambiguously said that the concrete slab or sleeper, which is fixed to the slab. It should solution of the majority of structural problems rests in the be noted that the text to follow deals with the problems right understanding of dynamic effects acting in the railway focused on the classic superstructure. track structure. The fundamental part of the superstructure is formed The basic claim put on single parts of the railway by rails, turnouts, fasteners, sleepers and the railway tract is their functional reliability together with the safety bed. Rails, together with sleepers, fasteners and the track of the railway operation. Although the superstructure fastenings, constitute the track length. Its main function has been practically developed to its perfection during is to carry the vehicle and the load, to lead the vehicle more than 150-year railways, new technical solutions can geometrically along the trajectory, and by its elasticity to still be found. This holds good especially for different absorb dynamic effects and also to distribute the load into types of turnout structures, various rail fastenings, various other layers of the superstructure and substructure. types of rail pads, sleepers, anti-vibration measures etc. The main function of the gravel ballast is to resist the It is suitable to say that each part of the rail structure vertical, cross and longitudinal forces and at the same time is exposed to considerable static and dynamic stresses.

Romi Ilham - Nanang Shonhadji - Hariadi Yutanto - Diah Ekaningtyas ANALYSIS OF THE ACCEPTANCE FACTOR OF ANDROID-BASED PARKING INFORMATION SYSTEMS IN INDONESIA

Parking is an unrelenting problem, with more vehicles having an impact on the way how to park a vehicle. Some experts have made various breakthroughs in overcoming parking problems; one of them is using smartphone technology as a system to facilitate the way to park. This study aims to analyse user acceptance using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology UTAUT method with structural equation models (SEM-PLS), against 221 respondents. The result is that performance expectations, effort expectancy, and social influence variables have a significant effect on behavioural intention. Then the facilitating conditions variable and behavioural intention significantly influence the use of behaviour for using smartphone parking systems. Furthermore, this research is expected to help the government to find out what factors affect the parking system. Keywords: parking, android, smartphone, UTAUT

1 Introduction smartphone technology parking systems with the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) The problem of parking is classic in big cities, because Model, to determine application performance, ease of it has occurred since many years ago. The problem is that use, social influence and to determine user intentions and because the parking fee is considered the only potential technology acceptance [4]. source of income for regional government development financing [1]. Therefore, in this case, the government is competing to find ways to increase the source of 2 Literature review income through parking by improving the existing system. Furthermore, the most important thing is a great system Indonesia is a developing country; currently, major and infrastructure so that the parking process can run cities in Indonesia have implemented a variety of parking smoothly [2]. systems as a way to increase its regional income sources. In previous studies, Android-based parking systems have According to its development, there are several types of been developed to prevent queues and cost-effectiveness parking systems that have been developed in Indonesia, [2-3]. However, in its journey, it required socialization and and the first is a desktop-based application system This education to the community in its application. There are application can run by itself or independently without various models of parking systems that have been made using a browser or internet connection on a computer by experts. Some using personal computers (desktop PCs) autonomously, with a specific operating system or platform and other use smartphones. Along with the changing times, [5]. The second type of application is web-based; this the use of desktop-pc is considered to be lagging behind application can run using a web technology or browser. This because besides that, it has to take up space and it is not application can be accessed anywhere as long as there is a easy to move. supportive internet connection without the need to install The use of desktop-pc is only suitable for buildings, on each computer, such as a desktop application, only schools, or private companies in a limited scope. The next by opening a browser and going to where the application parking system is the Parking Meter, commonly called server is installed. “ATM Parking” in Indonesia. This system is considered quite The third type of application is mobile-based, this useful because it does not require parking attendants in its application is at a glance almost the same as web-based, application. However, many people do not use Parking ATMs but there are four differences when viewed from features, because there are no officers to guard [3]. Furthermore, user interaction, location awareness, and push notification. the application of the parking system uses smartphone While viewed from application connections, there are two technology Thus latest technology offers digital payment types of connections, namely online connections, which facilities, besides it is easily carried by parking attendants, means we are currently connected to the internet or so officers can adjust the parking area while parking the cyberspace, connected to it through social media accounts, vehicle. This study aims to analyse the acceptance of e-mails, and other types of accounts that we use or use

While offline is a term for a situation we travel movements must provide adequate service facilities. are not connected to the internet; more precisely it is Increasing population and increasing vehicle ownership not connected. In connection with the application to be will lead to increased demand for roads to accommodate analysed, the analysis is a mobile-based application with an traffic activities [11]. Based on the literature review above, online connection [6]. the following framework is as presented on Figure 1. According to Regional Regulation No. 9 of 2001 Performance Expectancy - as the degree to which concerning Parking Taxes Parking is a non-moving a person trusts by using the system - will help that person to condition of a vehicle that is not temporary. Parking Tax, gain performance gains on the job. In this concept there is from now on referred to as Tax, is a tax imposed on the a combination of variables obtained from previous research operation of Parking Spaces. Parking space is an off-street models about the acceptance and use of technology models parking space provided by individuals or entities, whether [4]. The variables are: perceived usefulness [13], extrinsic provided in connection with the principal of the business or motivation [13], job fit [14], relative advantage [15] and provided as a business, including the provision of Motorized outcome expectations [4]. Based on empirical evidence, Vehicle Storage and Garage of Motorized vehicles that they are separated into performance expectations and collect fees. [7] As it was revealed that roadside parking is personal expectations [13, 16]. Usefulness - a level where managed directly by the City Government while off-street is someone believes that the use of a particular subject - managed by the private sector for public use. will be able to improve the work performance of that The difference between Parking Tax and Parking person. From some of the explanations presented above, Levies on the edge of public roads from now on, referred to it can be concluded that someone trusts and feels using an as levies, lies in the use of the parking space. In levies are information technology will be very useful and can improve levied on payments for the use of public roadside parking performance and work performance [17]. spaces, which are still government-owned facilities. As Effort expectancy is the level of ease of use of the determined by the Mayor or Regent, Parking Taxes are system that will be able to reduce the efforts (energy imposed on payments for the operation of parking spaces and time) of individuals in doing their work [4]. These outside the road body, which means privately owned variables are formulated based on three constructs in facilities and usually managed by a private agency. The the previous model or theory, namely Perceived Ease of potential increase in local revenue through parking is high Use (PEOU) of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) because one of the sources of regional income is from fees model, complexity of the Model of PC Utilisation (MPCU), and parking taxes [8]. At present, parking management and ease of use of Innovation Diffusion Theory (IDT) [4]. on public roads is mostly done by the private sector in Davis, et al. [13] identified that ease of use influence the use the name of associations or community groups, so that of information technology. The ease of use of information the parking fund does not contribute positively to local technology will cause a feeling in a person that the system revenue. has a use and, therefore, creates a sense of comfort when The potential income from parking can change along working with it [18]. Several indicators of the ease of use with the business progress of the community [2, 9-10]. of Information Technology (IT), namely: IT is elementary For example, the addition of a parking space affects to understand, IT do easily what is desired by its users, the potential increase in parking revenue; Besides that, user skills will be increased by using IT, and IT is very easy location and usability also affect the income. There are to operate. From some of the explanations given above, three main elements in the transportation system, namely information technology users believe that information vehicles, lane infrastructure, and terminals. The traffic technology that is more flexible, easy to understand, and goes to a destination, and after reaching that place the easy to operate will generate interest in using information vehicle needs a stop. The stop is then called a parking technology and so will use information technology [4]. space. For a vehicle transportation system to be more Social Influence is defined as the extent to which efficient, places that are considered capable of arousing an individual perceives the interests that are trusted by

Also, the moderate application of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) role of age, sex, experience, and voluntaries was confirmed. technology that is useful to determine capacity parking The development of cellular telephone network through data collection at the entrance and exit at the technology has now entered its fifth generation, and fast parking area, then there is a study conducted by [46] connectivity is one of the benefits that can be felt by various who applies the number plate recognition, which aims to sectors, one of which is the parking system [44]. Based on recognize the vehicle plate number. this research, it can be seen in the performance expectancy, Research from [7], regarding parking behaviour in effort expectancy, and social influence variables that the user Indonesia, states that many people prefer to park their feels that the presence of a smartphone in a parking system vehicles on the side of the road. From the technology can increase productivity and influence the behavioural that has been done by researchers beforehand, that the intention variable to intend further to use the application application of the technology is not suitable to be applied [4]. Moreover, the facilitating conditions and behavioural on the road because besides the behaviour of Indonesian intention variables influence the use of behaviour, which people who have not been disciplined and structured means that the facilities that support and the intention to parking with the technology is more suitable to be applied use can improve the user’s attitude in using the application by the private sector where there are entrances and exits [4, 15, 38]. such as in malls, school or office building.

Mariusz Kostrzewski - Jozef Gnap - Pavol Varjan - Marek Likos APPLICATION OF SIMULATION METHODS FOR STUDY ON AVAILABILITY OF ONE-AISLE MACHINE ORDER PICKING PROCESS

The main aim of the paper is the analysis of simulation model reflecting selected in-warehouse logistics processes in the aspect of their availability. For this purpose, one-aisle machine picking problem with use of a stochastic random simulation is studied, with a special focus on reliability of the system to disturbances and maintenance scheduling. The methodology in the research consists of classic measures of reliability. The model is designed in order to analyze availability of selected parameters of randomly generated order picking process. One of key-results of the paper is answer for question if a mean time to failure can be treated as a value of time when the first failure in the system occurs. A summary of the contribution includes discussion and the perspectives for further research in the subject matter. Keywords: availability, MTTR, MTBF, MTTF, failure rate, failure frequency, warehouse

1 Introduction reduction of traveled distance between picking points, as in [3, 11-12]. Many other authors attempted to reduce OP The order picking (later: OP) process is deliberated process time, as in: [7, 13-14]. as one of the most important among processes in internal In order to achieve as much as realistic simulation logistics. It is believed as such because this process is the model as possible, during its building some events, which most labor consuming one and it determines the level of potentially disrupt a regular material-flow should be service experienced by the down-stream customers [1]. included. This kind of events can be implemented accurately Moreover, it engages most of resources of all processes or randomly. Retooling, maintenance times, accidents, realized in logistics facilities (that aspect is connected to machine failures and many other kinds of disturbances can labor consuming), which is confirmed in [2]. In addition, be included in simulation to make it firstly more realistic, this process is considered to be the most time consuming more adequate to real logistics facility, and secondly [3-4]. All these aspects aim to find out that it is highly to execute what-if analyses in order to be ready for cost-consuming process. Authors of [5] estimated OP cost unpredicted failures or “catastrophes”, which might took - they stated that the cost incurred during OP processes is place in a logistics facility implemented into simulation from 55% to 75% of total cost for all logistics processes in model. In many simulation software there are at least two warehouses (it is also mentioned e.g. in [6-7]). OP process options for failures modeling [15]. The first one is using consists of roughly three phases. The first one is travel to statistical distribution and the second one is application the predefined storage location which is non-value-adding of certain areas based on reliability theory. In the model according to [1], the second one is search of the exact used for this study second option was implemented. By location wanted. This phase can be significant while picking the way, paraphrasing of “failure” meaning given in [16], of small parts, and it is considered also as non-value-adding it is understood in the paper as a unit/machine/mean of phase. The third phase is connected to three actions: reach, transport/device which has not met user/customer/operator take, and deliver to the appropriate in/out spot. This is requirements in some way during its functioning. a value-added and the most resistant to automation activity. Taking into consideration all the above statements, As it was mentioned in many references, the scope of a model for OP analyses in one aisle in OP area was scientific elaborations on OP processes is very broad. The developed (this one aisle is operated by one automated authors deal with e.g.: strategies used to achieve efficient machine: an automated storage and retrieval system AS/RS). OP process (e.g.: [8-10]), cost estimation based on highly The main objective of this model is to obtain a sequence detailed and hierarchical analytical or numerical models, of any number (by default, one hundred) of durations of and reduction of processes duration (or indirectly, by OP process taking place within OP area in a hypothetical

This paper is connected to the simulation Research results on this subject in the context of model presented in [17] (briefly described in third section logistics (and especially intralogistics) are published much of the paper, the one connected to methodology). For less frequently. Authors of [21] used chosen KPIs in order to this paper, the model would be analyzed in the context of analyze the system composed of a machine, a warehouse, the accessibility of machine contributing to OP process a vehicle and customers. Authors realized it in order to operation and in the context of other concepts related choose a suitable vehicle type according to different costs to mentioned accessibility. Therefore, it can be assumed of this system taking into consideration MTTR and MTBF. that the following parameters are analyzed with use of Authors of [22] prepared a multicriteria rating of the batch the model: availability, mean time to failure, mean time process method, including four KPIs as technological between failures, mean downtime, mean time to diagnose, aspects evaluation in this method. KPIs were also used in mean time to recovery, failure rate, etc. One of the aims of [23] in order to reduce intralogistics costs of spare parts and the article is to answer the following research question. Can semi-finished products while implementation of digitization the simulated times up to the first failure of the means of in maintenance. Authors of [24] used chosen KPIs in order transport and the times obtained on the basis of calculated to analyze buffers next to assembly lines system with statistical values for selected accessibility characteristics material handling. However, several publications touched be treated identically? In other words, can the mean time devices availability analyses for internal logistics, these to failure, calculated from the generalized mean time to were hardly connected to treat it as the main subject matter. failure equation, be treated as the value of time when the first failure in the model occurs? It seems to be important question, especially that a wide range of innovative concepts 3 Methodology, research conditions make transport systems (and equipment) more efficient and and assumptions competitive [18], therefore these systems and equipment need to be analyzed adequately. The methodology consists of several parts. At first, it involves data compilation and pre-processing (despite the model consists of hypothetical data, these must meet 2 Literature review requirements related to the real-world facilities). Secondly, it involves data exploration (mostly, statistics exploration). Several equations for assessing availability of agents Third part includes developing and experimenting with the (e.g. means of transport) taking part in a process can be simulation model, while the last part entails evaluation and found in literature. These equations are based on available interpretation of results of the experiments. data on damage to components over time. These data In modeling theory, the category of models, which are used in order to create an availability model, which selected parameters can be described by random variables, is designed to reproduce as faithfully as possible an distinguishes deterministic and stochastic models. operating process of a machine/vehicle, etc. However, when In a deterministic model none of random variables are hypothetical facilities are analyzed, no historical data is implemented. Stochastic model contains at least one connected to any failures in the process. For this reason, variable of random kind [17, 25-26]. The model considered a simulation modeling may be implemented for analyses. in this paper is stochastic one. Simplifications are adopted for such models, which are The main assumptions of this simulation model are described in methodology section. connected to the fact that it realizes a sequence of randomly The origin of using mean time between failures matched picking lists. The particular picking list is described (MTBF), mean time to recovery (MTTR) was in computer by two parameters. The first one is the number of lines in science and information technology and later in operational each picking list that correspond to assortment of products management. At first, it was used in order to determine to be picked during certain order realization. The second the durability of hard drives. Author of [14] described core parameter is the quantities of items of a certain product to principles of reliability in software engineering. pick from a certain shelf in OP area. The number of lines in As Authors of [19] mentioned, most of companies each picking list (of a j-th element in the sample for k-th implement lean management for their operational experiment) reaches the scope of w(j,k) = {1,…,10}, and the realization. One of the methods, which is connected to lean quantities of i items to pick (per line in a k-th experiment) management is Total Productive Maintenance (TPM).

Picking lists are MTTF, MTTR and OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) generated as a result of initiation of adequate procedure are some of many key performance indicators (KPIs) with pseudorandom number generator (PRGN) included allowing to analyze disturbances and failure rates of in the simulation model, and this PRGN is defined and production processes.

This the group of parameters can be broadened by another parameter is particularly important for systems in which ones, which might be useful in a study of reliability and single operations last a long time - small values of MTTF availability of machines and means of transport that are significantly reduces a probability of correct completion not unambiguously defined in the software and require of a single operation. In a lot of design, components and to be redefined in simulation model. These parameters, devices, a value of MTTF is especially near to a value of not exclusively, are mean time to failure (MTTF), mean MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures). Typically, MTBF time between failures (MTBF), estimated percentage of is slightly longer than MTTF [31]. MTTF should be used simulation time during which a mean of transport failure for non-repairable items, however it has been studied may occur (f(k); this is parameter similar to unavailability here in order to examine the interdependence of different - the difference is that f(k) is stochastic parameter, which parameters of this type. value is drawn on the basis of PRGN built into the software In the paper [32] and book [33], the availability is given and its value in relation to availability hT is characterized as Equation (6). by the relation fk 1 1 - hT , whereas unavailability hT ^h Q is characterized by the following relation hhTT=-1 . hT =+MTTF//MTTF MTTR = MTTF MTBF (6) Q ^h The simulation model has been satisfactory verified before and verification proved that the difference between Equation (5) is used in the case, when it is dealing with the results of the simulation model and the analytical model impact of a repairable element on availability of a system is at acceptable level of 3.5%. The model was not validated, (refurbishing/remanufacture is not understood as repair, since it is hypothetical warehouse. but rather replacement). And the Equation (6) is used when According to [29], the availability is equal to the it is dealing with impact of a one-off/non-repairable element probability of a unit/machine/mean of transport when it on availability of a system, in which it operates (an element is operated correctly and without any malfunctions. It is could be refurbished/remanufactured) [30]. The simulation determined by Equation (2), where: hT is parameter of model is assumed to deal with a situation, where replace availability (unitless parameter), T is total operating time parts in equipment subject to failure is possible - therefore

According to [29], mean time to repair (known also n = 1/MTBF (7) as mean time to restore, mean time to recovery as in [12] or mean downtime, [min]) MTTR is total downtime Tout Failure frequency (unitless parameter), according to [32], is given as in Equation (8).

x = TMout / TTR (8) calibrating test equipment; dispatching personnel; reviewing technical manuals; complying with supply procedures; and Literature distinguishes three types of availability: awaiting transportation [37]. Operation availability (unitless inherent, operational and achieved. parameter) may be calculated according to Equation (10)

Inherent availability hTI is understood as availability [38]. ^h of a system with respect only to operating time and corrective maintenance. Parameter hTI is equal to hT , hTO =+MTBM/ MTBM MTTM+ LDT (10) ^h given as Equation (5). It does not include standby and delay times and mean logistics delay time (MLDT) [34]. The entire simulation model is predefined, verified

Achieved availability hTA is understood as and realistic thanks to usage of PRGN of two kinds: the ^h availability of a system with respect to operating time predefined in simulation software and the one prepared and both corrective and preventive maintenance (unitless by paper’s first author - specifications of them are given parameter). It ignores mean logistics delay time (MLDT) in the paper. The software predefined PRGN includes and may be calculated according to Equation (9) in [min], MLDT (it was assumed that MLDT is a result of PRGN where MTBM [31] is mean time between maintenance implementation), therefore instead of computing operation in [min] and MMT is mean maintenance time in [min] availability, in this paper inherent availability is computed. [35]. MMT is a measure of maintainability duration - preventive and corrective maintenance are taken into account. It is calculated by adding the preventive and 4 Results discussion corrective maintenance time and dividing it by the number of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance operations Results of k experiments on the model are gathered in during a stated period [36].

The problem is the organization of the information Today there are many mathematical models of space in which both carriers and customers would feel optimization of transport networks [1- 2]. However, all comfortable is very urgent now. To solve this problem, these models are separated and presented in different ways, it is necessary to create a digital integrated environment have a different form of recording, different representation - which is the main component of a unified information of input and output parameters, the same parameters in space to meet the needs of the transportation of passengers different models have different units of measurement, and goods, where user work is positioned as an electronic etc. At the moment there is no single unified form, service. The digital integrated environment should have a a single method of representation of such models, while modular structure that will enable the connection of new individual models do not allow to fully solve the necessary routes, new carriers, as well as representatives of related optimization problems in a digital integrated environment. organizations to provide additional services. When creating Therefore, the development of new more effective models, new routes, it is necessary to evaluate the parameters of approaches and software to optimize transport networks the routes and optimize the movement of route vehicles. applicable in the digital integrated environment is an urgent Consequently, an important step in the development of scientific problem. a digital integrated environment for transportation is the optimization of route transportation networks. The digital integrated environment for transportation 2 Transport network design and optimization is a single information space implemented by software and hardware, which provides the opportunity for interaction A single information space for transportation is a space between carriers and consumers.

Martin Boros - Matej Kucera - Andrej Velas - Jan Valouch POSSIBILITIES FOR EXPERIMENTAL TESTING OF ALARM TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS

In the current digital era, information is a basis of some systems. In the area of information, great emphasis is also placed on its security and possibilities of use. The basis of the alarm transmission system is information about the protected object, which is transmitted to the remote center of the alarm transmission system. Operators of alarm transmission system centers should be obliged to carry out regular testing of the availability of individual transmission networks. At present, there is a trend that those tests are carried out by telephone calls between the two technicians and the time of transmission of information is measured utilizing a stopwatch. To automate this process, a test facility has been created that can simulate and record the intrusion of a protected object. Initial experimental tests have ascertained whether it is possible, with the test equipment, to generate the data necessary to assess the reliability of alarm transmission systems. Keywords: test facility, alarm transmission system, information, protected object, alarm transmission system center

1 Introduction by a separate technical standard which, in addition to the functional ones, includes the design requirements, as well. An object protection system can be understood as Given the nature and importance of the alarm a thought-out arrangement of security features, measures transmission system, one could divide it into three basic and their properties that all together create a sense of parts, which are the transmitting device in the protected security. These elements could be divided into four basic building, the transmission path and the receiving device groups: passive protection elements, active protection in the monitoring center. The configuration and setting elements, physical protection elements and regime- of the alarm transmission system shall, depending on the organizational measures. The passive protection elements technical standards, correspond to the logical continuity include mechanical barrier systems, usually supplemented shown in the block diagram in Figure 1. with apertures. The alarm transmission system, together There are several definitions in literature of the system with the electrical alarm system, video surveillance system, reliability, depending on the area in which the system is fire alarm system, access control system and others, belong located. The basic definition, based on technical standards, to the group of alarm systems as active protection elements. defines reliability as the property (ability) of a product or Given the name of the group, one can say that the basis system to perform the desired function within a specified of an alarm system is an alarm, which can be defined as time, while maintaining operating parameters. Reliability a warning of the presence of a danger to life, property or can be expressed by using one of its basic parameters: environment [1-2]. no-failure operation, machine life, reparability, machine An alarm transmission system is defined, according availability [3]. to technical regulations, as an alarm transmission device Based on categorization of the backup transmission and a network used to transmit the status information of paths use, one assumes that the transmission paths one or more alarm systems to one or more alarm devices designated SP1-6 do not use the backup transmission path. of one or more alarm reception centers. In addition to the The DP1-4 paths use an alternative, backup path, depending basic and specific requirements for alarm systems, the on the capabilities of the attached, protected object. technical standards also include the concept of an alarm To increase efficiency and reliability of an alarm transmission system monitoring center, which is understood transmission system, the connection of the object via as a continuous service center in which the condition a backup transmission path is used in practice, which is and functionality of one or more alarm transmission used in the case of a primary malfunction.

As a part of the research into the reliability of system. As mentioned above, to express the availability alarm transmission systems, in the first phase of testing, of the alarm transmission system, the calculation for the measurements from the two different protected objects, monthly availability of the alarm transmission system was in which no electrical security system was installed, used, which is expressed according to the relation: were carried out. The measurements were carried out SF simultaneously for 10 days from both objects to simulate MA =-1 ) 100 , (1) bl43800 the real use of the system. The basis of the measurements was a testing device from which information was sent to where: the alarm transmission system center at regular 20-minute MA - monthly expression of the availability of the alarm intervals about the intrusion of the protected object. In transmission system expressed as a percentage, all the cases of this phase of experimental testing, it was SF - the sum of breakdown times over 30 days, expressed the same type of alarm relay message in terms of size. in minutes, The reason was regular switching of the alarm input of 43 800 - the average number of minutes in one month the communicator, to which the unified type of event that except for a leap year. occurred during programming was set. Since this was Since in the pilot experimental tests measurements the first stage of experimental testing, focused on the lasted only 10 days, the relation for calculation was correct functionality of the test equipment, no restrictive adjusted. The adjustments consisted of changing the conditions for the time of transmission of the message were constant value of the average number of minutes per defined. The first phase was aimed to find out whether the month from 43 800 to 14 600, which is one-third, as the testing device can fully replace the control panel of the basis was on the SF parameter, which refers to a period of electric security system and thus simulate the protected 30 days. Using the adjusted formula, it was found that the object [8-9]. real availability of the alarm transmission system during The ten-day interval was chosen because of the ability the practical measurements was 76.57%. The availability of to modify the monthly availability formula. It was chosen the alarm transmission system is decisive for all the alarm to base the calculation on monthly availability because transmission routes through which the protected objects weekly availability is a verification calculation based are connected to the centralized security desk. on knowing annual availability.

From this point of view, one can state that the ten-day cycle was suitably chosen to point out the possible shortcomings of the set requirements 5 Conclusion following the next phase of experimental testing. The paper is aimed to point out a new possibility of obtaining the data necessary to re-evaluate the system of 4 Discussion object protection, which is formed by a combination of subsystems. The main topic was alarm systems, namely The need to test alarm systems has long been recognized alarm transmission systems, in which the first experimental in the circles of experts and scholars of literature and testing, focused on the availability of the transmission system should be given due consideration. The importance of using a testing device, was performed. When designing and experimental tests affects many people, such as security creating the test equipment, the simple programmable managers, private security operators, installers, academics circuits were used to simulate the connection of the and, finally, end-users [10]. protected object to the alarm transmission system center. In addition to users of individual systems, the results of Using the long-term testing, 10 days, it was possible experimental tests are also needed for simulation programs to determine the availability of the transmission system, as designed to evaluate the proposed systems. Those results well as the alarm transmission path, with minimal attention could influence design of the system at an early stage, to it. Experimental testing is based on the need to obtain the focusing on design efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the data needed for simulation programs to evaluate the object solution [11-12]. protection system.
